Detailed Breakdown

a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating of all Reviews over all time. For each review the Care Home / service is rated Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, Poor or Very Poor on a number of areas eg Staff, Management etc. The Care Home receives points for each rating as follows: Excellent = 5. Good = 4. Satisfactory = 3. Poor = 2. Very Poor = 1. These points are added up and then divided by the total number of completed ratings to generate the average rating.

b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 12 months. If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with 'Extremely Likely' or 'Likely' in answer to the question 'How likely are you to recommend this Care Home to friends and family if they needed similar care or treatment?'

The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

4 points are available for the first 5 Positive Reviews, 3 points for the first Positive Review and then 0.25 Points for each of the next 4 Positive Reviews.

1 point is available for reaching a target number of Positive Reviews based on 20% of the number of registered maximum number of service users. If the target is partially reached then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home with 50 registered maximum number of service users has a target of 10 Positive Reviews, if it has 10 or more Positive Reviews it will receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews will receive 0.7 points.

If there are no Positive Reviews in the last 12 months, then 2.5 points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 2 years. The calculation is the same as above, except the points are divided by 2.

The 3.52 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ashurst Place Rest Home is based on 2 positive Reviews in the last 12 months and is calculated as follows:

I have know the service providers for a number of years and have always been made welcome when I visit. I enjoy chatting with the residents and they are always happy to tell me about their day. Everyone there seems to be getting along.

Without doubt one of the best and most caring rest homes in the area. The staff's devotion and care are at the highest levels, nothing is too much trouble. The park and gardens offer a different and higher quality of life for residents. Ashurst Place is a refreshing change from others. I would highly recommend.

I can't thank the management and carers enough for their wonderful and dedicated care of my late mother. For the last three years she has been safe, warm, clean and comfortable, and, above all, happy. Care homes of this excellent standard must be rare, but, thank goodness for them. It has given myself and my family great peace of mind to know that my mother was in such good hands.

When my Mum sadly passed recently, she was shown dignity and tenderness right up to the end. I know this because I was treated with the same level of respect. I was given a room next door to my Mum's for the two nights prior to her passing so that I could be there for her. Nothing was too much trouble for the carers and saying thank you to them all isn't enough.

Keep up the good work Ashurst Place Rest Home! If I ever need to move into a care home, yours would be the top of my list.

With grateful thanks,
Christine.

My friend has been very happy and settled at Ashurst Place Rest Home. She felt safe there and enjoyed the wildlife. The staff took her out shopping and taught her how to budget her money and how to self-scan. Unfortunately, she recently had a stroke and is currently still in hospital. Maybe one day she will be well enough to return to Ashurst Place.

I don't think there's anything not to like. They are all kind and friendly. If I call them they come, they come if I don't call them. There is lots of variety of food. I like it here. We haver trips out to the seaside and garden and is doesn't cost me anything.
